I was one that was very late. However, I had a wonderful Saturday evening. Meeting so many people, I think I need a memory test. Lol We all DiD know know each other in school. Now, well what does, someone else think. I truly did not recognize most of every one, especially two special friends I had all through school, K thru 12. I am so very glad they came up to me. The there was a gentleman who was very sweet to me at the desert table and I got very
shy. We still all came together. I just could not go through the memorial.
I hope we all stay in touch. I am trying to with my friends. To every one, Happy New Safe New Year and I love every one!

So nice to hear your sentiments, Karen. You certainly were not alone in not recognizing many – oh, the usefulness of name tags!! It was wonderful seeing you and so many at the reunion, and I hope 2019 brings you good health and happiness! Until the next reunion…

Hi folks. I left Shaw Jr. High in 9th grade, when we moved. Just looking at this website, I recognize a number of names, which bring a nostalgic smile to my old face. Amyway, thought I’d reach out and say “hi”.

Hi Tim, since I did not move to Swampscott until 10th grade, we were never actually classmates, but so very happy you have found the website and can catch up on news. I hope the email addresses encourage you to reach out to classmates directly and reconnect after many years. Happy, healthy 2019!

I notice that up to this point, all of the comments were made before the events of Aug. 27 – 29. I applaud the results of 12 months of planning, communicating, and decorating that our 50th reunion team did to make this spectacular three day event. You thought of everything. Grazie and congratulations.

Hi all – It’s been so many years. I look forward to reconnecting with friends old and new. Thank you to the committee for spending all the time and effort to pull this together. Can’t believe it’s our 50th!

I loved our 40th reunion. It proved to me that we left our Bobbie socks and penny loafers back in 1968. Now that life has taught us much bigger lessons, we have a lot in common to talk about. We have had injuries and illnesses. We have lost loved ones, some have lost children. We have found new paths that have brought us to new places. I enthusiastically look forward to engaging with you again.

Thanks for all of your hard work and dedication to this project, Rick! Your efforts have allowed us to get to this place where we will be able to enjoy each other’s company at our 50th! So looking forward to it!

Never expected to come back to Swampscott even though it was a great life there. Been gone 45 years and read the memorials and so many that I knew have died, A real shocker. Thanks committee for putting it together. See you there, all the rest.

Our sincere thanks to the following classmates for their generous gifts to the class fund. With your gifts, we purchased a tree that was planted at the entrance to the high school, a memorial paver for the Blocksidge Field courtyard and paid for the class website.
